This is the time of year that we celebrate all the reasons we have to be thankful. If you're like me, you probably feel so thankful for this community, your family, and friends. I am so thankful for all of the local families (like YOU!) that visit the website, get the weekly newsletter or follow me on social media for local news, events and activities all year round. So I created this fun Thanksgiving Day printable as a way to say "Thanks!"

But can you come up with 26 reasons — in alphabetical order? What about your kids?

This is a great activity to do with kids — and adults! — of all ages while waiting for that turkey to be done Thanksgiving Day. Once everyone is done with their thankfulness alphabet, compare answers to see how many responses are the same. 

Maybe you can hold an in-house contest to reward the most creative or thoughtful responses with an extra slice of pecan pie. And, the person who doesn't finish their list gets to do the dishes! (Just kidding!) This gratitude worksheet works all year long so feel free to click and get the printable to practice being thankful any time of year!

After all, there is always something to be thankful for.
